AI catalyst for Engineering and Science


The AI catalyst for Engineering and Science (AIcES) seminar series aims to ignite interdisciplinary innovation across AI, sciences (physics, quantum, bio), and engineering (materials, sensing). Through expert dialogue, it advances cutting-edge AI research (quantum error correction, physics-informed neural networks, geometric deep learning, AI-driven materials) while addressing societal challenges (energy, medicine, autonomy). The series strengthens academia-industry-national lab partnerships, enhancing translation of breakthroughs. It will drive collaboration with leaders in AI and increase external visibility of the UT AI initiative, positioning UTK as a global leader in multidisciplinary AI. Aligned with the AI Tennessee Initiative, it highlights UT’s commitment to discovery, workforce development, and societal impact via ethical, collaborative innovation
